... when I list it like that, I've had a ridiculous amount of consoles haha - the only two I don't currently own are the Atari 2600 and Spectrum.

The best gaming system by a mile was the PS1. Absurd amount of top quality games.

Agreed on the PS1 golden era. The Resident Evils were also great. The first MGS too.

Played Alex Kidd at a mate's as he had the Master System, was really enjoyable, preferred it to Mario and learnt Rock, Paper, Scissors too. Other friends were Nintendo-heads, F-Zero on the SNES was the only one I really enjoyed on those systems (SF2 as well but eventually got that on Sega). Ghost-n-Goblins was hard as fook! That and Strider were two C64 games I never got past the first level on. GTA3 was groundbreaking, epic game.

Some Shenmue love here, read this only yesterday:

I got that battlefield hardline.

Jesus Christ, for every 30 seconds of actual game playboys about 12 minutes of cut scenes

Never played it, but I am sure the game is delightful.

what's yous favourite all-time game on each system you've had?

C64 - Zaxxon
Amiga - Frontier - the benchmark by which all sequels should be judged
Master System - Asterix, solely because you could switch the language to French and it helped me get a good GCSE
MegaDrive - Desert Strike
PS1: Final Fantasy VII, probably the best game ever made
PS2: GTA Vice City
PC pre-2010: Knights of the Old Republic - just magnificent
PC post-2010: Crusader Kings 2 - solely because playing it is a window into your soul

CK2 is 100% a window into your soul.
Machiavelli would absolutely love it.
Character manipulations, assassinations, roleplay, dynasty building, backstabbing.
Has it all.

I should probably buy and play CK2. But Total War: Warhammer is just around the corner!!!!!!

After thinking my gaming days were at an end having not played any in months I'm now hooked on pes 16, for my ps3, great game, and the co-op games have massively improved from last year.

Got a decent option file, not the best with some errors to bundesliga squads, but it'lldo tthe trick.

Might even treat myself to the last of us this week.
